Can I ask, who is running the Eastside Group? In the flyer they were asking for donations and referenced a website, but I can't find out who is involved. I think it is great, but would be interested in a little bit of understanding of who they are.
Looks like a fun event, sorry I missed it, but the kids decided they wanted to sleep.
Is it true that Fitzy showed up and searched around the tables of food for some Twinkies or Twinkie desert like an anteater who hadn't eaten in weeks? I can only picture him rushing from table to table sniffing out his favorite little cream-filled snack.
The president of The Eastside Costa Mesa Neighbors Group is Jeff McConville. Call the number on the flyer for more information about the group. The used the picnic as a fundraiser to pay the costs of conducting candidate forums. In the last cycle theirs was the best of the bunch.
